Thought I'd start the new thread (do not even want to think about all that was lost) with something fun.

Wonderful is a VEN-bred 3yo daughter of Smarty out of an Indygo Shiner mare. She broke her maiden by ~10 lengths on debut at La Rinconada in Venezuela back on Sept. 1 in her debut. Our good friend Adieu found the video. And as Adieu pointed out this video has gotten a lot of views, considering. So there must be a bit of buzz about her down there.

Ugh. Terrible trip for Res Judicata. He was in good shape early, but almost slid around the turn on a very sloppy track. Got a bit trapped, then had to steady as a horse falling back through the field ended up in front of him. Think he threw in the towel at that point.

That horse that caused him to steady was Whiskey Romeo, the other horse I was rooting for (he's in my virtual stable), and he is the only horse that finished behind Res Judicata. I hope both horses come out of it okay!
